ZIP 29631 (Clemson, SC) Housing Market Update — February 23, 2026

ZIP 29631 housing market update

ZIP 29631 (Clemson, Pickens County, South Carolina) is showing signs of a cooler market than a year ago, with softer pricing metrics and longer marketing times in the most recent ZIP-level dashboards.

Top takeaways

Prices: Both Realtor.com and Redfin show year-over-year price declines in their latest reporting periods.
Inventory: Active listings are still limited (dozens of homes), so move-in-ready properties can stand out.
Tempo: Days on market are higher than last year, and sale-to-list ratios point to more room to negotiate.

Market snapshot (latest reported periods)

On Realtor.com’s ZIP 29631 market dashboard (reporting period: December 2025), the median home price is shown at $415,000 with 68 active listings and an average 76 days on market. Realtor.com also reports a 96% sale-to-list ratio for the same period, meaning homes sold for a few percent under asking on average.

Redfin’s housing market page for January 2026 shows a $366,000 median sale price, with homes selling in about 64 days on average and 49 homes sold that month. Different sites use different data sources and methodologies, but both point to a slower, more price-sensitive environment than a year ago.

Rentals & investor signal

Realtor.com’s December 2025 snapshot lists a $1,402 median rent and over 100 rental listings. If that elevated rental supply persists into spring, renters may see more options, while owners of rentals may need to stay sharp on condition, amenities, and renewal timing.

Permits, renovations, and new builds

If you’re planning a remodel or new construction inside the City of Clemson, the city notes that building permits are required for new construction, repairs, and renovations, with online application available through a contractor web portal. If you’re buying a fixer-upper, build permit and inspection timelines into your closing and move-in plan.

What’s for sale right now (no addresses)

Today’s active listing mix in ZIP 29631 includes condos/townhomes, mid-priced single-family homes, and a smaller set of higher-end and new-construction options. Examples visible on major listing portals include:

A condo-style unit advertised in the mid-$100Ks range.
Multiple single-family options in the $300Ks–$400Ks range.
At least one new-construction or luxury-priced home marketed near the $900K level.

How locals are adapting

For sellers: In a slower market, small prep work (clean inspection items, fresh paint, HVAC service records) can help listings compete without immediately leaning on big price cuts.

For buyers: If you’re seeing longer days on market, consider negotiating for repairs, closing-cost credits, or a rate buydown, while keeping contingencies and inspection quality high.
